Boost Mobile, founded in 2000 in Australia and later expanding to the U.S., is a well-known prepaid carrier now owned by EchoStar. After years of building its own 5G network, Boost moved all of its customers onto AT&T’s nationwide network in November 2025. It currently offers four monthly phone plans, from an unlimited plan that starts at $10/mo for new customers to a premium plan with hotspot, international calling, and roaming in Canada and Mexico. Every plan includes unlimited talk, text, and data, no contract, no credit check, and a 30-day money-back guarantee. Advertised prices include a $5/mo AutoPay discount and don’t include taxes and fees. Here's a breakdown of what's currently available.
Unlimited – $10/mo
$10/mo for the first 6 months for new customers, then $25/mo forever (requires AutoPay)
$25/mo with AutoPay after the promo; $30/mo without AutoPay
Unlimited talk, text, and data
30GB of premium high-speed data, then speeds may be reduced to 512Kbps
Lifetime price guarantee: $25/mo for as long as you don’t cancel or pause service
Hotspot and international calling not included, but available as add-ons
Boost’s most affordable plan is a great pick for light to moderate data users. New customers pay just $10/mo for the first 6 months, and after that the price is locked at $25/mo for as long as you keep your service. If you need hotspot or call abroad often, one of the higher-tier plans will likely be a better value than paying for add-ons.
Global Connection – $40/mo
$40/mo with AutoPay; $45/mo without AutoPay
Unlimited talk, text, and data
40GB of premium high-speed data, then speeds may be reduced to 512Kbps
Global Talk & Text: unlimited calls from the U.S. to 100+ countries, with included minutes to the rest of the world
Global Roaming with 1GB of data for use while traveling abroad
Hotspot not included
This plan is built for people with family and friends overseas. It has the same 40GB of premium data as Unlimited+ for $10/mo less, and it’s the only Boost plan with data roaming outside North America. The trade-off is no hotspot and no device or multi-line discounts.
Unlimited+ – $50/mo
$50/mo with AutoPay; $55/mo without AutoPay
Unlimited talk, text, and data
40GB of premium high-speed data, then speeds may be reduced to 512Kbps
Mobile hotspot included (uses your plan’s data)
Global Talk & Text: unlimited calls to 100+ countries and unlimited texts to 191+ countries
Up to $300 in device savings, with Buy Now, Pay Later available
Multi-line discounts: $20 off with 2 lines or $40 off with 3 lines
This mid-tier plan is a solid choice for hotspot users and anyone who wants a discounted Android phone. Several Motorola and Samsung models are free with this plan at the time of writing.
Unlimited Premium – $60/mo
$60/mo with AutoPay; $65/mo without AutoPay
Unlimited talk, text, and data
50GB of premium high-speed data, then speeds may be reduced to 512Kbps

FAQs for Boost Mobile Plans
How can I pay for my Boost Mobile prepaid plan?
The easiest, fastest, and most secure way to pay for your Boost Mobile prepaid plan is online with Teloa, a prepaid refill service that offers 3% cash back on every payment and $5 off your first month. Teloa accepts debit or credit cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, Cash App, and USDC (via Stripe), giving you multiple ways to pay.
You can also pay directly through the Boost Mobile website or app, or visit a Boost Mobile store or authorized retailer to pay in person.
Which is the best Boost Mobile plan?
Boost Mobile’s prepaid plans offer options for every budget. Heavy data users and travelers to Canada and Mexico will get the most out of Unlimited Premium ($60/mo with AutoPay), with 50GB of premium data, hotspot, and the best phone deals, while Unlimited+ ($50/mo with AutoPay) offers a great middle ground with 40GB of premium data and hotspot.
If you call or travel internationally but don’t need hotspot, Global Connection ($40/mo with AutoPay) adds global roaming for less. For the lowest bill, Unlimited ($25/mo with AutoPay) locks in its price for life, and new customers can start at $10/mo for the first 6 months. Families can also save with multi-line discounts on Unlimited+ and Unlimited Premium.
Why choose Boost Mobile?
Boost Mobile runs on AT&T’s nationwide 5G network and offers no-contract prepaid plans with no credit check. You can bring your own phone, switch plans at any time, and try the service with a 30-day money-back guarantee. The $25 Unlimited plan comes with a lifetime price guarantee, while the higher-tier plans add hotspot, international calling, Canada and Mexico roaming, and discounts on new phones. Just keep in mind that "unlimited" data slows to 512Kbps once you use up your plan’s premium data.
